How did you hear about us?
Browsing realm forums.

What aspect(s) of the game is your main focus?
Ofcourse raiding and pvp but I enjoy doing just about any guild activity whether or not its heroics, raiding alliance cities, achievements etc.

Have you read and understood our guild charter? Any comments regarding it?
I have read it and agree with every bit of it.

What is your interest in joining Exodus, and why do you believe you're a good candidate?
I'm looking to get back into raiding after moving and finding a new job. I believe I would be a great canidate because I am a total team player, come prepared for raids (not only for my self but just incase someone forgot flask/potions etc), I show up for raids unless real life has interrupted in which case I will let the officers know that I won't be able to make the raid.

Are there any Exodus members you know who can speak on your behalf?
None at this time.

Have you been in any other guilds on Cairne?
Not on Cairne. My last guild on Mal'Ganis was Eradication. The guild was ran by 16 year olds having thier mid-life crisis during every raid.

Have you ever leveled other characters to 80?
Yes I have many alts although my husband has leveled a few of them.

Can your system handle 25-man raiding reliably?
Yes

What kind of raid/end game experience do you have (be specific)?
Vanilla: MC, BWL, ZG, AQ20, some of AQ40/Naxx
BC: Kara, Gruul's, Mags Lair, some of SSC and TK (I was working 2nd shift so it was tough finding a guild that raided in the late morning/early afternoon)
WOTLK: ICC 25 (12/12+9/12hm), ICC 10 (12/12+8/12hm), VoA, OS (on another character: Naxx, some of Ulduar hm's, EoE, Ony)
What is your play schedule like? Can you consistently meet our 25-man raid times?
I play every day and your raid times are great for me.

Any other comments?
Not sure if you're taking cross server apps but I thought I'd put one in anyway as your guild looks to be a great fit for me.

I seriously ROFL IRL when I read this...

Very nice app.

A question or two for you:

Why did you pick Ass instead of combat as your MS?
With all the changes to rogues what is your current ST rotation/priority?
What are your thoughts on going back and doing old world content for fun?


This still happens in WoW?



Please make sure that this is completely accurate! I would hate for you to pay for a xfer to a raid guild and then not show up for raids. It seems to be more and more the norm that players apply, are accepted as a raider, and then fail to show up for raids while in the initiate stage. This is a very very important part of our guild and I just want to stress this point with you.

Thanks for the application and I look forward to your answers.

Thanks for the quick response!

To answer your questions:

1 - I originally picked assassination because I had better weapons for it. I do love combat and now have weapons for it but with the latest patch assassination simply outdps's it. I do read Elitist Jerks often and being a rogue, I like to have the best dps spec possible. If there are two equal specs I would just go for the one that I had the best gear for.

2 - The rotation for assassination hasn't changed all that much; open up with garrote > slice and dice > envenom to get full duration slice and dice > mutilate to 4/5 cp > rupture. Keeping envenom and rupture as close to 100% up time as possible. Also first tricks to the tank then keeping it up on my rogue friends (or anyone willing to slip a gold or two in my pocket! )

3 - Love going back in time to do old raids. I was recently farming ZG for mounts and got the raptor so far!

4 & 5 - Yes it still does happen! I currently know my work schedule until Nov 22 and I see no reason that I would miss a raid. On rare occasions I do work in the evening but as mentioned it's rare. The latest I work is 5:30pm server time and usually I get off an hour before that so if I'm not working I'm at home playing. Being on time and to things I said I will be at are also very important to me. I expect the same out of everyone else whether its in game or real life so you won't see anything less then that from me.

I have read several places that this is the best rotation on a static fight but with so much movement on a lot of the heroic level rights "some" rogues advocate putting in a Mut after Garrote to insure you have a bit of "movement time" on your slicendice up time. What are your thoughts on that theory?

That's a very viable option. I guess it would depend on if you had deadly poison up and you had time to envenom before moving. If the fight is moving around to the point where you haven't had a proc of deadly poison then yes I would mutilate for the extra combos. One of the fights I can think of that is tough for an assassination rogue to shine is Dreamwalker. But now that you can use combos off of dead npc's I can't see keeping slice and dice up being a problem. Now envenom and rupture is where the problem is on that particular fight.

Just checking in to see if a decision has been made on my app. If you have anymore questions let me know!

Thanks,

Evo

Hey Evo, Pyrae should be getting with you soon.

Thank-you for taking the time to apply to Exodus. Please get with an officer in-game for an invite.

Well I've put in for my transfer but the log in server is being fun right now so I'll get in touch with an officer as soon as I can get on.
Thanks!

Evo
